This should have ensured that all lists had host_name "mail-server.mydomain.my" and since this name is in POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS, genaliases should have created aliases and virtual-mailman for all lists.
postconf -n output:
alias_database = hash:/etc/postfix/aliases alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/aliases, hash:/etc/mailman/aliases
Good.

You probably should have
recipient_delimiter = +
for Mailman's VERP like senders.

If you are using virtual-mailman, you want to add "hash:/etc/mailman/virtual-mailman" to virtual_alias_maps. However, because of your dovecot LDA, you may need to do the transport_maps thing instead. See below.

after i read http://wiki.list.org/display/DOC/Mailman+-+Postfix+integration+with+Mailman+...
<http://wiki.list.org/display/DOC/Mailman+-+Postfix+integration+with+Mailman+generated+transport+or+other+maps>i changed & added a few options in mm_cfg.py
POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS = ['mydomain.my']
Why did you change this? You must have your list's email domain in POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS. According to what you did above, your list's email domain is 'mail-server.mydomain.my', not 'mydomain.my'.
POSTFIX_MAP_CMD = '/etc/mailman/virtual_to_transport'

This all looks correct.
in /etc/mailman/virtual_to_transport #!/bin/sh sed -r -e 's/(^[^#][^ ]+[ ]+).+$/\1local/' $1 \
/etc/mailman/transport-mailman /usr/sbin/postmap /etc/mailman/transport-mailman
# postconf transport_maps transport_maps = proxy:ldap:/etc/postfix/ldap_transport_maps_user.cf, proxy:ldap:/etc/postfix/ldap_transport_maps_domain.cf, hash:/etc/mailman/transport-mailman
did i missed anything?
The above seems correct for the transport_maps method, but you shouldn't have changed POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS.
And Umarzuki Mochlis added in a follow-up:
after a check on /usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/Defaults.py
VAR_PREFIX = '/var/lib/mailman' DATA_DIR = os.path.join(VAR_PREFIX, 'data')
so the /path/to/data must be /var/lib/mailman/data which led me to
Except it clearly isn't because your "ls -l /etc/mailman/" above clearly shows all the files in that directory. Perhaps there is something in mm_cfg.py that overrides VAR_PREFIX and DATA_DIR.
You might find the FAQ at <http://wiki.list.org/x/KYCB> of interest.
- change main.cf

move virtual_to_transport to /var/lib/mailman/data

any hints or advises?
Yes. Undo the 4 steps above. Fix POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS in mm_cfg.py and run /usr/lib/mailman/bin/genaliases again.
